This is a very interesting powerpoint in which it tells you all about my social and family life. I found this powerpoint to be very interesting because it was a powepoint that had no limits on what you could do. It was all about you, so it was one of the easiest powerpoints. I did not think that this was very difficult because it was personalized to you and you only. One thing i would have done different was make the powerpoint have different pictures and less words. by doing this project it helped me learn about powerpoint. What I would improve about the powerpoint is to limit how many slides you can use because some peoples powerpoints can get boring.

This is a class blog that anyone can use at anytime to communicate with each other about various topics of hisotory. The reason I enjoy this blog is because you can print this blog out that we used during that day with everything we talked about, and use them as notes. I really didnt find anything that was difficult or wrong with the wiki, overall i thought it was a great tool to use for studying. Something that i would do differently about the wiki is to limit what people can say.


Collaboration and Community

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
workplace expectations/skills/abilities, workplace resources, collaboration and teamwork, decision making, problem solving, creativity, navigating the community,
civic engagement (leadership, social skill, politeness, task skill, helpfulness, diversity, clarity, success of outcomes)

This is a tool that helped me organize all of my thoughts for the unit projects. I enjoyed this because it was a very easy to keep all of my thoughts in one place and i could get to it at anytime and any place. What i found difficult about the wiki was that it was hard to change all the fonts. What really worked out was that it was easy to access from anyplace. I think that the wiki is a great tool and i would not change anything.


Research and Assessment Tools

library skills and information literacy, search strategies, evaluating sources, mathematical reasoning, scientific method, data presentation and interpretation, rubrics, assessment, reflection
